Now, Meghan’s sister-in-law Kate Middleton has opened up on the 37 year old’s pregnancy.

Kate, 36, spoke on the topic while chatting to members of the public today outside Leicester University during her visit to the city with husband Prince William, as they paid tribute to those who were tragically killed in the helicopter crash on Saturday 27 October.

And while it is said the relocation is so the couple can begin family life after Meghan gives birth in the Spring, royal sources have suggested it is partly because Meghan and sister-in-law Kate Middleton “don’t really get on.”

Speaking to the Daily Mail, a royal insider said: “Kate and Meghan are very different people. They don’t really get on.”

Both women have attended several royal engagements together, and look more than happy in each other’s company.

However, Meghan's Hollywood persona is said to have shaken up the royal family with some claiming it has upset the balance in the household.
